I'm all about knitting, spinning, and straight up making with a focus on playing and finding joy in the process.

I hope you’re all safe and settled in for social distancing with lots of yarn and fiber to keep you occupied. I haven't had the energy or brain space to put towards IG, even before social distancing, but I have been knitting when not chasing down a toddl… https://t.co/Hn1tgNTqMM

Time for #fiberuary day 13! This is my on the go #knitting bag, and it works equally well when I’m running errands or need an easy knit while keeping an eye on the kiddo. I’ve got an in progress toddler sock in there along with my favorite notions bag an… https://t.co/xWi9bA2dr3

It’s not quite black and white for #fiberuary, but it is white and various shades of gray. I picked up this awesome gradient from @thebluebrickish to knit a Wingspan shawl. Looking forward to diving into this yarn and pattern soon! ⠀

Talking gratitude for today’s #fiberuarychallenge! Knitting and fiber arts have been a wonderful source of beauty, love, strength, and home for me since I first learned to knit with my mom over a decade ago. I’ll expand on that later though because today… https://t.co/aUCDsq0NpM

Weekends means coffee shop #knitting! Bribing myself with coffee and a cookie to get to the cuff increases for this sock. ⠀

Talking technique today for day 6 of the #fiberuarychallenge. I had to think about this a bit because the small details of #knitting are a very big part of why I love knitting. Such as how different cast-ons are better suited for necklines and others for… https://t.co/FLM1LHGTzl

When I saw that the Day 5 prompt for the #fiberuarychallenge was “outside”, my first thought was, “Ugh. You want me to go outside?” The introvert is strong in me, and it’s also the middle of the week during nap time so I’m not going anywhere. I’m hunkere… https://t.co/QQcA8NuVnh

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

Talking about WIP’s for #fiberuarychallenge day 5. My shelves and project bags are loaded with half-finished projects and designs. So I grabbed the one closest at hand - these socks I’m #knitting for a friend’s kiddo. Said socks are a cute, quick projec… https://t.co/aFAvlCW6Ba

Grey, grey, and more grey for the 4th Day of the #fiberuarychallenge! This is a close up of a commission I’ve been having so much fun with. I’ve recreated it from screen captures and YouTube clips, and I’m just getting to the complicated bits. It has be… https://t.co/ftsYdxE8NX

It's Day 3 of the #fiberuarychallenge - something made in 2019! I made lots of things last year, but what I'm most proud of is my first #knitting pattern release after having a baby. This is the Old Friend hat. It started off as a hat for the husband, an… https://t.co/pQYRHwQ1oT

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

My #knitting and sipping is a weekend affair when I get out of the house for some just me time. I usually end up at a cafe for some coffee and a few minutes with my stitches. Sometimes there’s a book too for good measure. These few minutes where I don’t … https://t.co/7oUOGTYYrh

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

Let’s give this #fiberuary thing a shot! My name is April, and I taught myself to knit during my freshman year of college. #knitting socks, scarves, and mitts got me through so much required reading and the occasional class too. 😁I taught myself to s… https://t.co/KTZDJVyZSK

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

The kiddo got her first pair of hand knit socks a few days ago. I made with them with the expectation that she'd ditch them under the furniture like every other pair of her socks, but she actually likes them! She brings them over to me so I can put them … https://t.co/ckJpR55fnX

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

I really thought I’d loathe sewing down this picot bind off, but it is surprisingly satisfying. Also, that edge is on point and going fast. #willowcowl #malabrigo #malabrigosock #igknitters #knitting #ravelry #instaknit #knitstagram #knitlove #knitallthe… https://t.co/J6LhxWNCYC

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

This weekend has seen me get mostly over a cold, and be well enough to get out to a coffee shop for some just me time. I will gratefully take all that time I can get. Now that I’m out of the fog of that cold, I’m looking forward to the rest of the year. … https://t.co/IjNUrj99wG

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

I’m halfway finished with my first ever picot edge. The result is satisfying even if it is finicky as hell to join. Especially with dark yarn. Good thing it’s pretty. #giftknitting #knitting #knittersofravelry #igknitters #knitstagram #instaknit #malabri… https://t.co/TCvjdyjWL3

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

Took my #knitting out for a date with a mocha. This time out of the house by myself feels positively luxurious. #igknitters #instaknit #knitstagram #ravelry #knittersofinstagram #eatsleepknit #malabrigoyarn #malabrigosock #willowcowl #yarnlove #giftknitt… https://t.co/TuSXDalL3G

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

Well, this is a new mistake. I managed to wrap the yarn over all around the work instead of just the needle. Not looking forward to tinking back 160 sts to fix it. Ugh. #knittersofinstagram #knitting #knitstagram #instaknit #ravelry #malabrigoyarn #malab… https://t.co/U1ODC12Rzf

[April Klich @AprilKlich]

I’ve been unpacking and getting our new place set up which means I haven’t knit a stitch for a month now. 😭 In the past week I finally found my ball winder and swift and have a clear table to use them on! 🎉 So I’m finally winding yarn for my gift kni… https://t.co/VS0Um48wYP
